Update:
Turns out (lol) that i had put my steering wheel on wonky when i replaced the dials, so i took it off again today and tidied the wiring for the dials up, but think i must have put one cable next to another cable that shouldnt be as now the dials buzz quite loudly when there on. need to look into that!
also got some LED strips in the post. so went about wiring them in too. i know they wont be too everyones taste, but a nice bit of blue light goes nicely with the car.
Only thing is, that now i dont like my dials so much, as they are more turquoise than they are blue, so maybe Mk2 dials after all?
anyways, more updates to come! Got a blue rocker switch coming in the post that will be for the footwell LED's and the others i plan on putting in. I (will, as i didnt quite get the wiring right) have them come on with the headlights, but have a switch as well so they can be turned off easily.
